Ehetere 1
1 Na i nga ra i a Ahahueruha, ara a Ahahueruha i kingi nei i Inia a tae noa ki Etiopia, kotahi rau e rua tekau ma whitu nga kawanatanga:
ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις Ἀρταξέρξου οὗτος ὁ Ἀρταξέρξης ἀπὸ τῆς Ἰνδικῆς ἑκατὸν εἴκοσι ἑπτὰ χωρῶν ἐκράτησεν
2 I aua ra, i te mea e ata noho ana a Kingi Ahahueruha i runga i te torona o tona kingitanga i Huhana, i te whare kingi,
ἐν αὐταῖς ταῖς ἡμέραις ὅτε ἐθρονίσθη ὁ βασιλεὺς Ἀρταξέρξης ἐν Σούσοις τῇ πόλει
3 I te toru o nga tau o tona kingitanga, ka tukua e ia he hakari ma ana rangatira katoa ratou ko ana tangata; i tona aroaro ano te hunga nunui o Pahia, o Meria, nga tangata rarahi, me nga rangatira o nga kawanatanga:
ἐν τῷ τρίτῳ ἔτει βασιλεύοντος αὐτοῦ δοχὴν ἐποίησεν τοῖς φίλοις καὶ τοῖς λοιποῖς ἔθνεσιν καὶ τοῖς Περσῶν καὶ Μήδων ἐνδόξοις καὶ τοῖς ἄρχουσιν τῶν σατραπῶν
4 I a ia e whakakite ana i te taonga me te kororia o tona kingitanga, i tona honore, i tona ataahua nui, he maha nga ra, kotahi rau e waru tekau nga ra.
καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα μετὰ τὸ δεῖξαι αὐτοῖς τὸν πλοῦτον τῆς βασιλείας αὐτοῦ καὶ τὴν δόξαν τῆς εὐφροσύνης τοῦ πλούτου αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ ἡμέρας ἑκατὸν ὀγδοήκοντα
5 Na, ka taka aua ra, ka tukua e te kingi he hakari ma te iwi katoa i reira i Huhana, i te whare kingi, ma te rahi, ma te iti, e whitu nga ra, i te marae i te kari te whare o te kingi;
ὅτε δὲ ἀνεπληρώθησαν αἱ ἡμέραι τοῦ γάμου ἐποίησεν ὁ βασιλεὺς πότον τοῖς ἔθνεσιν τοῖς εὑρεθεῖσιν εἰς τὴν πόλιν ἐπὶ ἡμέρας ἓξ ἐν αὐλῇ οἴκου τοῦ βασιλέως
6 Ko nga hipoki he mea ma, he kakariki, he puru; ko nga aho he rinena pai he mea papura, ko nga mowhiti i mau ai, he hiriwa; ko nga pou he mapere; ko nga tokotoranga he koura, he hiriwa; a ko te papa o raro he mapere whero, ma, kowhai, mangu hoki.
κεκοσμημένῃ βυσσίνοις καὶ καρπασίνοις τεταμένοις ἐπὶ σχοινίοις βυσσίνοις καὶ πορφυροῖς ἐπὶ κύβοις χρυσοῖς καὶ ἀργυροῖς ἐπὶ στύλοις παρίνοις καὶ λιθίνοις κλῖναι χρυσαῖ καὶ ἀργυραῖ ἐπὶ λιθοστρώτου σμαραγδίτου λίθου καὶ πιννίνου καὶ παρίνου λίθου καὶ στρωμναὶ διαφανεῖς ποικίλως διηνθισμέναι κύκλῳ ῥόδα πεπασμένα
7 Ko nga kapu inu i hoatu ma ratou he oko koura; rere ke tonu te ahua o tenei oko, o tenei oko; tona nui ano o te waina kingi, rite tonu ki ta te kingi tikanga.
ποτήρια χρυσᾶ καὶ ἀργυρᾶ καὶ ἀνθράκινον κυλίκιον προκείμενον ἀπὸ ταλάντων τρισμυρίων οἶνος πολὺς καὶ ἡδύς ὃν αὐτὸς ὁ βασιλεὺς ἔπινεν
8 I rite ano te inu ki ta te ture, kahore he tohe; na te kingi taua tikanga i whakatakoto ki nga rangatira katoa o tona whare, ko ta te tangata i pai ai ko tana tera e mea ai.
ὁ δὲ πότος οὗτος οὐ κατὰ προκείμενον νόμον ἐγένετο οὕτως δὲ ἠθέλησεν ὁ βασιλεὺς καὶ ἐπέταξεν τοῖς οἰκονόμοις ποιῆσαι τὸ θέλημα αὐτοῦ καὶ τῶν ἀνθρώπων
9 I tukua ano e te kuini, e Wahati, he hakari ma nga wahine i roto i te whare kingi o Kingi Ahahueruha.
καὶ Αστιν ἡ βασίλισσα ἐποίησε πότον ταῖς γυναιξὶν ἐν τοῖς βασιλείοις ὅπου ὁ βασιλεὺς Ἀρταξέρξης
10 I te whitu o nga ra, i te mea e koa ana te ngakau o te kingi i te waina, ka mea ia ki a Mehumana ratou ko Pitita, ko Harapona, ko Pikita, ko Apakata, ko Tetara, ko Karakaha, ki nga rangatira ruma tokowhitu i mahi i te aroaro o Kingi Ahahueruha,
ἐν δὲ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ ἑβδόμῃ ἡδέως γενόμενος ὁ βασιλεὺς εἶπεν τῷ Αμαν καὶ Βαζαν καὶ Θαρρα καὶ Βωραζη καὶ Ζαθολθα καὶ Αβαταζα καὶ Θαραβα τοῖς ἑπτὰ εὐνούχοις τοῖς διακόνοις τοῦ βασιλέως Ἀρταξέρξου
11 Kia kawea mai te kuini, a Wahati, ki te aroaro o te kingi, me te karauna kuini, kia whakakitea atu ai tona ataahua ki nga iwi, ki nga rangatira: he pai hoki tona ahua.
εἰσαγαγεῖν τὴν βασίλισσαν πρὸς αὐτὸν βασιλεύειν αὐτὴν καὶ περιθεῖναι αὐτῇ τὸ διάδημα καὶ δεῖξαι αὐτὴν πᾶσιν τοῖς ἄρχουσιν καὶ τοῖς ἔθνεσιν τὸ κάλλος αὐτῆς ὅτι καλὴ ἦν
12 Otiia kihai a Kuini Wahati i pai kia haere mai i ta te kingi kupu i korerotia e ana rangatira ruma. Na reira i riri rawa ai te kingi, a mura ana tona riri i roto i a ia.
καὶ οὐκ εἰσήκουσεν αὐτοῦ Αστιν ἡ βασίλισσα ἐλθεῖν μετὰ τῶν εὐνούχων καὶ ἐλυπήθη ὁ βασιλεὺς καὶ ὠργίσθη
13 Katahi te kingi ka korero ki nga tangata whai whakaaro i mohio nei ki nga taima, ko ta te kingi tikanga hoki ia, ki te hunga katoa e mohio ana ki te ture, ki te whakarite tikanga;
καὶ εἶπεν τοῖς φίλοις αὐτοῦ κατὰ ταῦτα ἐλάλησεν Αστιν ποιήσατε οὖν περὶ τούτου νόμον καὶ κρίσιν
14 Ko Karahena hoki i tata ki a ia, ko Hetara, ko Aramata, ko Tarahihi, ko Merehe, ko Marahena, ko Memukana, ara ko nga rangatira tokowhitu o Pahia, o Meria, i kite nei i te mata o te kingi, a i noho hei tuatahi i te kingitanga;
καὶ προσῆλθεν αὐτῷ Αρκεσαιος καὶ Σαρσαθαιος καὶ Μαλησεαρ οἱ ἄρχοντες Περσῶν καὶ Μήδων οἱ ἐγγὺς τοῦ βασιλέως οἱ πρῶτοι παρακαθήμενοι τῷ βασιλεῖ
15 Ki ta te ture, ko te aha kia meatia ki te kuini, ki a Wahati, mona kihai i whakarite i te kupu a Kingi Ahahueruha i kawea atu e nga rangatira ruma?
καὶ ἀπήγγειλαν αὐτῷ κατὰ τοὺς νόμους ὡς δεῖ ποιῆσαι Αστιν τῇ βασιλίσσῃ ὅτι οὐκ ἐποίησεν τὰ ὑπὸ τοῦ βασιλέως προσταχθέντα διὰ τῶν εὐνούχων
16 Na ka mea a Memukana i te aroaro o te kingi ratou ko nga rangatira, Ehara i te mea ki te kingi anake ta Kuini Wahati he; engari ki nga rangatira katoa ano, ki nga iwi katoa o nga kawanatanga katoa a Kingi Ahahueruha.
καὶ εἶπεν ὁ Μουχαιος πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα καὶ τοὺς ἄρχοντας οὐ τὸν βασιλέα μόνον ἠδίκησεν Αστιν ἡ βασίλισσα ἀλλὰ καὶ πάντας τοὺς ἄρχοντας καὶ τοὺς ἡγουμένους τοῦ βασιλέως
17 Ka haere hoki te rongo o tenei mahi a te kuini ki nga wahine katoa, a ka whakahawea o ratou kanohi ki a ratou tane, ina ka korerotia, i mea a Kingi Ahahueruha kia kawea mai a Kuini Wahati ki tona aroaro, a kihai tera i haere mai.
καὶ γὰρ διηγήσατο αὐτοῖς τὰ ῥήματα τῆς βασιλίσσης καὶ ὡς ἀντεῖπεν τῷ βασιλεῖ ὡς οὖν ἀντεῖπεν τῷ βασιλεῖ Ἀρταξέρξῃ
18 Ka pena ano aianei te kupu a nga wahine rangatira o Pahia, o Meria. kua rongo nei ki te mahi a te kuini ki nga rangatira katoa a te kingi. Na tera e nui atu te whakahawea me te riri.
οὕτως σήμερον αἱ τυραννίδες αἱ λοιπαὶ τῶν ἀρχόντων Περσῶν καὶ Μήδων ἀκούσασαι τὰ τῷ βασιλεῖ λεχθέντα ὑπ’ αὐτῆς τολμήσουσιν ὁμοίως ἀτιμάσαι τοὺς ἄνδρας αὐτῶν
19 Ki te pai te kingi, kia puta he kupu kingi mana, me tuhituhi hoki ki roto ki nga ture o nga Pahi, o nga Meri, kei taka, ara kia kaua a Wahati e haere mai ki te aroaro o Kingi Ahahueruha; ko tona kuinitanga hoki kia hoatu e te kingi ki tetahi atu e pai ake ana i a ia.
εἰ οὖν δοκεῖ τῷ βασιλεῖ προσταξάτω βασιλικόν καὶ γραφήτω κατὰ τοὺς νόμους Μήδων καὶ Περσῶν καὶ μὴ ἄλλως χρησάσθω μηδὲ εἰσελθάτω ἔτι ἡ βασίλισσα πρὸς αὐτόν καὶ τὴν βασιλείαν αὐτῆς δότω ὁ βασιλεὺς γυναικὶ κρείττονι αὐτῆς
20 A, ka rangona ta te kingi tikanga e whakatakoto ai ia puta noa i tona kingitanga nui nei, katahi nga wahine katoa ka whakahonore i a ratou tane, i te iti, i te rahi.
καὶ ἀκουσθήτω ὁ νόμος ὁ ὑπὸ τοῦ βασιλέως ὃν ἐὰν ποιῇ ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ αὐτοῦ καὶ οὕτως πᾶσαι αἱ γυναῖκες περιθήσουσιν τιμὴν τοῖς ἀνδράσιν ἑαυτῶν ἀπὸ πτωχοῦ ἕως πλουσίου
21 Na pai tonu te kupu ki te whakaaro o te kingi, o nga rangatira; a rite tonu ki te kupu a Memukana ta te kingi i mea ai.
καὶ ἤρεσεν ὁ λόγος τῷ βασιλεῖ καὶ τοῖς ἄρχουσι καὶ ἐποίησεν ὁ βασιλεὺς καθὰ ἐλάλησεν ὁ Μουχαιος
22 I tukua hoki e ia he pukapuka ki nga kawanatanga katoa a te kingi, ki tenei kawanatanga, ki tenei kawanatanga, he mea whakarite ki to reira tikanga mo te tuhituhi, ki tenei iwi, ki tenei iwi, he mea whakarite ki to reira reo, ara ko nga tane kat oa hei rangatira i roto i o ratou whare; a kia korerotia i te reo o to reira iwi.
καὶ ἀπέστειλεν εἰς πᾶσαν τὴν βασιλείαν κατὰ χώραν κατὰ τὴν λέξιν αὐτῶν ὥστε εἶναι φόβον αὐτοῖς ἐν ταῖς οἰκίαις αὐτῶν
